The function <function>ip2long</function> generates a long integer
representation of IPv4 Internet network address from its Internet
standard format (dotted string) representation.

<function>ip2long</function> will also work with non-complete IP
addresses. Read <link xlink:href="&url.ip2long.tech;">&url.ip2long.tech;</link>

<note>
<para>
Because PHP's <type>int</type> type is signed, and many IP addresses
will result in negative integers on 32-bit architectures, you need to use
the "%u" formatter of <function>sprintf</function> or
<function>printf</function> to get the string representation of the
unsigned IP address.
</para>
</note>
<note>
<para>
<function>ip2long</function> will return <literal>-1</literal> for the IP
<literal>255.255.255.255</literal> on 32-bit systems due to the integer value overflowing.
